We guide pharmaceutical manufacturers towards a safe process
The pharmaceutical industry has special requirements for sealing systems, sealing materials and process standards. Thus, the process industry presents seals with a variety of challenges such as hygiene, conformity (e.g. FDA-compliant use of materials), purity and durability.
Similar to the food, chemical or beverage industries, the pharmaceutical industry also requires specific certifications and approvals to ensure a safe process.
Kofler - Dichtungen is aware of the challenge and manufactures all products in accordance with the Good Manufacturing Process (GMP) and is ISO-certified.
Hygiene and Process Safety for the Pharmaceutical Industry
Particularly in the pharmaceutical industry, hygiene and process safety are as crucial as in scarcely any other sector. In the production of medications and vaccines, hygiene measures must be implemented to prevent any production losses and contamination.
Consequently, seals and gaskets are subjected to extremely high temperatures and stresses. They must endure cleaning processes such as CIP/SIP cleaning methods or Stage II sterilization.
Kofler - Dichtungen is dedicated to developing seals that are specially tailored to your needs and standards, ensuring maximum process safety.
Durability and hygiene at the highest level
To meet expectations for durability and hygiene, it is imperative to use high-quality materials that comply with standards.
FFKM materials, as well as other high-end materials known for their high resistance to temperature and media, are utilized for this purpose.
With Kofler - Dichtungen, production flaws and downtime can be prevented, saving you from the loss of several millions.
High-end sealing materials
Kofler - Dichtungen utilizes a broad spectrum of high-end sealing materials specifically designed for the pharmaceutical industry with industry-specific approvals.
Seal materials for the pharmaceutical industry are required to comply with USP Class VI conformity, meet the requirements of the Food & Drug Administration, demonstrate high purity levels, and fulfill hygienic design standards.
Certain elastomer materials exhibit such high chemical resistance that they are regularly utilized in the pharmaceutical sector.
- NBR, EPDM, silicone, FPM (FKM), PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene), EPTFE, MVQ, and FEP are commonly used, in addition to
- silicone and stainless steel.
